   Nothing special about this app!. I’m looking at the reviews and they are 2 years old and they are giving it a 5 star. I’m like what? There are only basic keys on here. There is no updates on the app! If you need to learn what the key of A,B,C,D,E,F,G is than this is your app. But otherwise, nothing special here to learn. It has potential of being a great app if updated.

   Umm. What do you mean by dominant hand? You should have something to tell you how to read a fret bar because I have no idea what I'm looking at.

3. ★★★★★other

   Freak. Worst piece of crap I have ever used

4. ★★★★★limited chord and variation library

   Add more chord variations. Pls it’s not very helpful if there only two chord variations

5. ★★★★★other

   Could not figure it out. I could not figure out how to do it, it was just SO confusing:( I am deleting the app. Wast of space.😔

6. ★★★★★simple and easy-to-use interface

   Beginner only. Waste of time for all others.. Spend one minute on youtube. Save space on your device and forget this app.

7. ★★★★★other

   DO NOT DOWNLOAD. I hate this app! When I don’t like an app I usually just delete it but this app is terrible and I don’t recommend anyone download it

8. ★★★★★simple and easy-to-use interface

   Review. Not good at all the cords are wrong to what they should be and dont sound good

9. ★★★★★other

   Disappointing. Downloaded and intro page screen froze on I Pad, unable to use, waste of time. Don’t bother

10. ★★★★★limited chord and variation library

    Missing some chords. Just downloaded this app and was encouraged at first. However, the screens don't look like what's advertised with the download, and the biggest complaint is that there is no selection for A or B chords. Not sure if a recent update didn't go well, but the version I downloaded seems incomplete. Hope the next update corrects this because what is offered is great. Doesn't seem to be an Android version so couldn't check that to see if it's unique to iOS.

11. ★★★★★simple and easy-to-use interface

    Not Great. Needs a lot of improvement

12. ★★★★★limited chord and variation library

    Wow works better after mandatory review. Maybe I don't know how to use the app but all it has is a C chord. Update. I can't use the app unless I write a review. How could I review something that was disabled. The app seems awesome now.

13. ★★★★★limited chord and variation library

    Very few variations. This app is fine and I appreciate it being free and easy to use. I find that the lack of variations for chords makes it kinda useless for me. For someone who is just looking for common simple chord voicings it is probably a good tool

14. ★★★★★limited chord and variation library

    Great Interface, Limited Library. This app is a breeze easy to use, I quite enjoy the interface. However, I’d really appreciate the ability to create more complex chords and positions all along the fretboard. Overall this is perfect for beginners and intermediate players, but just not enough for what I was looking for.

15. ★★★★★simple and easy-to-use interface

    Really great app but just One question…. I love this app and I’ve been using it to help me Play music from Hamilton (as I usually forget the cords) 😅🤦🏼‍♀️ but how do you find F# ?

16. ★★★★★simple and easy-to-use interface

    Fun Chord finder!. Easy to use, great for students of guitar! Thanks!

17. ★★★★★limited chord and variation library

    Easy to use. Great app. Easy to use. Just needs a few more variations

18. ★★★★★free with no ads or subscriptions

    Great, but..... This app really is great for a free chord app. It’s easy to use, free, looks great and there are no ads. But most of the chord variations are pretty hard and there aren’t a lot of options. I’ve had to actually had to look at other sources just to get easier chords, not that you should always need them, but I would prefer not having to do that. Basically, just give it a bigger database and perhaps let people post chords.

19. ★★★★★missing audio playback for chords

    Good start but missing a few key things. Landscape mode would be nice and above all else, it would be nice to hear the chord sound as well. Other than that, I think a few chords are incorrect, A6 for one as another user pointed out etc.

20. ★★★★★simple and easy-to-use interface

    nope. i hate the new layout, the old one was much better

21. ★★★★★limited chord and variation library

    Excellent but needs updated. Excellent pocket chord reference, but needs to update and include more chords like Bflat, Eflat etc.

22. ★★★★★simple and easy-to-use interface

    clean and easy. Perfect for grabbing chord shapes on the fly! Fast and intuitive!

23. ★★★★★no way to save or bookmark chords

    Great just some ideas. There should be a way to store chords you want to practice and also a way to navigate through chord pages much easier. some Ui changes would be nice

24. ★★★★★missing audio playback for chords

    Wish. But I wishes it would play back after you play it play what that supposed to sound like so that you know it’s correct and in tune

25. ★★★★★simple and easy-to-use interface

    Good but not for beginners. If you know how to play and you just need a reminder this is great but if your a beginner I suggest you learn a technique first before you use this.

26. ★★★★★limited chord and variation library

    Need more direction. Please assume I am a completely clueless beginner! What do the X’s and O’s mean? And what do the numbers refer to? Need a little quick how-to tutorial please.

27. ★★★★★simple and easy-to-use interface

    Simple and straightforward. The app does what is is supposed to do in a clear and uncluttered manor. I am a beginner guitar player who is learning chords. An improvement would be to be able to display two chords at once in order to practice alternating chord playing. Thank you for the app and all the best with your endeavors.

28. ★★★★★simple and easy-to-use interface

    Just chords so far. This app is great just kinda started playing again, so far it’s been a great reminder of my chord finger placement 👍🏻

29. ★★★★★simple and easy-to-use interface

    Just works!. Simple, undiluted, effective. No fancy bells and whistles…just chords for you to learn without having to have a music degree to understand.

30. ★★★★★simple and easy-to-use interface

    Helpful guitar help. I like the simple format. I look forward to seeing more.
